About Artist:
Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life. (Pablo Picasso) I consider art as a malfunction of the brain, a moment where you are aware, disoriented from your feelings space and time...everything looks the other way, doing what was supposed to and you stand there all alone, far away...away from your self customed cage. Art happens when you gaze at the view out of your thoughts and feelings that the bars of the cage blur and gradually melt under the blinding light of freedom.

About Artwork:
messages from our souls, drifted in the sea of time, caged in a bottle, waiting to open them...to unleash the truth...warn us..."i promise you will lose"
